Amelia Garrett '26 Recruiting Profile

My biggest goal would be to play at the University of Nebraska, I grew up in Papillion NE and so it just feels like home. On the court, I want to better to become the best I can possibly be for myself and my team. I am known to be a firecracker on the court, along with being on the floor a lot. Once I step on the court, nothing else matters because I like to win. Watching others succeed makes me excited because I want the best for that person. I am very loud on the court but that's just my personality, outside of the court I am outgoing, funny, and occasionally oversleep sometimes. I want my college to have a good education program, school always comes before anything else. Because I am studying medicine I would like their to be great oppurtunities to do hands-on work, along with working with people in that field. What makes me different from most is that to me, volleyball is more than a game; it's my whole life. The adreneline rush I feel when the ball comes over the net, and the feeling of blocking a ball headed straight to your face ,once I step on that court nothing will hit that floor. acedemicallly I always keep up, and Im not araid to ask questions or get help when I need it. I set really high goals for myself, making sure that I have prorities straight so it makes my life alittle bit easier. Volleyball is like my home, I play with people who feel like family, I develop realtionships with my coaches, and we lose and win together.
